"Electric Hydrogen aims to further drive down costs. By 2030, customers will be able to produce hydrogen in renewables-rich states such as Texas for roughly $1.50 per kilogram, in line with hydrogen made from natural gas, it says."

Hydrogen startup spins out of Bill Gates-backed R&D effort, lands $7.8M
"Hydrogen is made from a variety of sources, namely fossil fuels, and through the use of dirty power. Peregrine is among the ventures aiming to make hydrogen without carbon dioxide production."
This Company Is Turning Waste Into Clean Hydrogen. And Electricity. And Water
"The facility's completion comes as the U.S. pushes for greater use of hydrogen from sources that don’t generate carbon dioxide. California has provided incentives for such clean power projects for years — particularly at Southern California ports that have among the worst air pollution in the country — and the Biden Administration is enacting generous new federal tax credits for clean hydrogen of up to $3 per kilogram. Billionaire Bill Gates calls hydrogen a Swiss Army Knife in the fight to curb rising greenhouse gas emissions that are slowly cooking the planet thanks to all the ways it can be used, from power generation, energy storage, cleaner production of fertilizer, ammonia and steel or as fuel for trucks, cars, ships and aircraft."
Georgia May Soon Be Home to a Hydrogen Highway
With investments in a hydrogen highway, Georgia may be paving the way forward for widespread hydrogen implementation in the transportation sector.
Hydrogen Production, SMRs Touted for Virginia Data Center Hub
"The companies said they plan to use the thermal energy generated by the SMRs to support the electrolysis of water into clean hydrogen, which could be used to fuel backup generators that would support the site. Hydrogen, which can be burned in engines that also run on natural gas, is being tested as an alternative to diesel fuel in backup generators. The fuel also could support other projects in Virginia using hydrogen fuel."
California Green Hydrogen Machine Maker Raises $73 Million
"Electrolyzers split hydrogen from water, yielding a fuel that can be produced and used without spewing greenhouse gases into the air. Although hydrogen is seen as a potential fuel for everything from city buses to data centers, most of it sold today goes to oil refineries and fertilizer plants, and it’s stripped from natural gas in a process that gives off carbon dioxide."
Is An Underground Hydrogen Boom Coming?
Hydrogen has already been proven to be a clean, efficient fuel source. Now, thanks to exploration for underground hydrogen reserves, use of this fuel may be even more widespread in the coming years.
Tapping Into Hydrogen Is A Win For America
An arranged national strategy, involving substantial investment and a supportive policy framework, is needed to ensure America is a competitive player in the global hydrogen economy.
Underground Hydrogen Could Supercharge Green Energy. First, Scientists Have to Find It.
"Similar to drilling for oil and natural gas, companies pursuing underground hydrogen would have to lease drilling sites from landowners and obtain mineral rights, which vary by state. Unlike oil or natural gas, hydrogen doesn’t pollute waterways or the environment with toxic chemicals. However it can be dangerous and is flammable."
Clean energy startup Modern Hydrogen, previously known as Modern Electron, raises $32.8M
"The startup has pilot projects planned with NW Natural — Oregon’s largest natural gas utility — and another utility that Pan couldn’t name, but his hints suggest it’s NextEra Energy. Modern Hydrogen plans to ship its demo reactors, which will be the size of half a shipping container, to the utilities by the third-quarter of this year."
